The historic, enchanting estate in Asheville, N.C., draws more than 1 million tourists a year. As many as 300,000 of them come during the holiday season.
Biltmore, site of the nation’s largest private residence, is famous for having one of the largest holiday displays in the Southeast.
Biltmore House, along with the surrounding 8,000 acres of the estate, will celebrate its annual Christmas at Biltmore through Jan. 3. “Good Morning America’s” weather anchor, Sam Champion, visited Biltmore this holiday season.
Decorating Biltmore is a tradition that began on Christmas Eve in 1895, when the owner, the wealthy industrialist George W. Vanderbilt, first welcomed friends to his estate to check out the Christmas splendor. It’s still in the family.
This season, Biltmore will be transformed into a virtual Christmas wonderland.
